Soon, Wu Sangui sent to Ningyuan to ask Hong Chengchou's personal guards, and returned to Juehua Island the next day.

Hong Chengchou of Ningyuan finally decided to purchase 20,000 from Li Zixiao after seeing the two new bird guns and meteor guns that Wu Sangui personally guarded and brought back.

Different from the meteor guns purchased by Wu Sangui, Hong Chengchou finally chose to purchase cheaper new bird guns in large quantities and buy meteor guns in small quantities.

"Lord Li, Governor Hong has news." Wu Sangui immediately found Li Zixiao.

"Lord Li, Governor Hong saw the fire guns brought back by my men, and ordered someone to send a message that he was willing to purchase 15,000 new bird guns and 5,000 meteor guns, each with 200 fixed ammunition, to be delivered in silver."

When Li Zixiao heard the good news, he was also in a good mood, and said happily: "Okay, Governor Hong is also decisive enough.

In this way, it is also the first time to deal with Governor Hong, which can be regarded as a good fate, and the fixed ammunition they carry is provided by Li for free. ”

"General Renyi, I thank Governor Hong on behalf of you." Wu Sangui thanked him.

"When is Governor Hong concerned, when will these firecrackers be delivered?"

"In addition to the 3,000 Meteor Guns you bought, you can also bring a batch of artillery and 10,000 new Bird Guns back this time.

I will also have the rest of the artillery and guns delivered to you within three days, so as not to delay the battle on your front line.

You go back and tell Governor Hong that this time in Liaodong you must teach the Tartars a hard lesson.

In addition to sending troops to speed up the offensive in southern Liaoning, I will once again send troops to capture Zhenjiang, attack the hinterland of the Tartars, and plan for the war in Jinzhou. ”

Wu Sangui was already very happy when he heard Li Zixiao's comprehensive half-sentence, he didn't expect that Li Zixiao had so many existing artillery and firearms in his hands.

But when Wu Sangui heard the second half of Li Zixiao's words, he was not already happy, but very excited.

"That's great, Lord Li, if you can put a lot of pressure on the Tartars in the area of southern Liaoning and Zhenjiang, it is best to force the Tartars to divide some of their forces.

Then it will be of great help to us in the battle ahead of Jinzhou, and I will go back and inform Governor Hong.

If we can defeat the Tartars in this battle, we will definitely have a share of Lord Li's contribution at that time, so everything will be left to you. ”

Wu Sangui even bowed to Li Zixiao and said sincerely.

"General Wu is polite, you and I are both generals of the Ming Dynasty, and the Tartars are our mortal enemies, of course Li has to contribute."

Li Zixiao hurriedly helped Wu Sangui up, and said with some grandeur.

At this time, Li Zixiao didn't know if Wu Sangui believed what he said, anyway, at least he didn't believe it.

At the same time, Li Zixiao also sighed in his heart: It's a pity that Wu Sangui, who is now bent on dealing with the Tartars, will be in the same stream with the Tartars in three years, and the world is really impermanent!

There is only an eternal community of interests in the world, and the so-called loyalty is sometimes unreliable.

"General Wu, I don't know when my more than 6,000 horses will be delivered?" This time it was Li Zixiao's turn to ask Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui glanced at Li Zixiao with some embarrassment, and said awkwardly: "Master Li, I'm really embarrassed."

More than 6,000 horses is not a small amount, and I don't have so many spare horses in my hands now, and with the big war approaching, it is impossible for me to draw a batch from my own men and horses to you.

In three days' time, when your sailor will come to Kyaw Wah Island to deliver the second batch of artillery and guns, I will deliver to the general the silver that Governor Hong had purchased for the guns, and the two thousand horses I had paid in advance.

This is already the maximum amount I can make in a short period of time, I wonder if the general is willing? ”

After listening to Wu Sangui's words, Li Zixiao frowned slightly, and then asked, "When can Lord Wu deliver the remaining four thousand horses to Li?" ”

"If Lord Li can trust me Wu Sangui and our Guan Ning Army, Wu can guarantee that after this battle, no matter whether Jinzhou can be held in the end, Lord Li's 4,000 horses will definitely not be lost.

Unless someone dies on the battlefield, or our Guanning army is completely annihilated, I will never lose my word. ”

Wu Sangui said sincerely at this time.

At the same time, Wu Sangui was also apprehensive in his heart, after all, his guarantee was a bit of empty talk, and he was worried that Li Zixiao would not agree and regret the transaction.

"Haha!"

However, to Wu Sangui's surprise, after Li Zixiao heard his words, he laughed, and then said: "Lord Wu's character, I Li can still be trusted."

Moreover, this time, I also believe that Governor Hong and General Wu will definitely win the battle against the Tartars in Songjin.

When the time comes, I also believe that Lord Wu will definitely fulfill the contract, so I completely agree with your proposal. ”

"Master Li, you are a friend, I have made up my mind."

After listening to Li Zixiao's words, Wu Sangui was also moved in his heart.

Indeed, Li Zixiao's decision moved Wu Sangui, how could ordinary people dare to trade hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and casually believe the other party's 'white slip'.

In fact, at this time, Li Zixiao was not at all as Wu Sangui thought in his heart.

Li Zixiao didn't really believe that Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui would win the battle against the Tartars, that was completely Li Zixiao's perfunctory words.

The reason why Li Zixiao agreed to Wu Sangui's promise was because Li Zixiao knew that even if Hong Chengchou was defeated in the battle of Songjin, Wu Sangui's Guan Ning army would not lose too much.

Even Wu Sangui's Ningyuan City would not be lost under normal circumstances, and the Tartars were mainly targeting Jinzhou, Songshan, Xingshan and Tashan this time.

If the Tartars want to take Ningyuan City in one go, it is still a little difficult.

Therefore, Li Zixiao is basically certain that even if the Battle of Songjin is a fiasco for the Ming army, it will not have much impact on Wu Sangui.

It is precisely because of this that Li Zixiao agreed to Wu Sangui's promise so readily.

At that time, Li Zixiao was not worried that Wu Sangui would dare to lose his words, Wu Sangui was not stupid enough to die and offend Li Zixiao at this time.

"The purpose of my trip to Kyaw Island has been basically accomplished, and I will return to Tamna Island in the near future.

I hope that Wu Sangui will go back and tell Governor Hong for me that when Songjin fights against the Tartars, you must not hesitate too much, and beware of the ambush of the Tartar cavalry and their sneak attack on your grain and grass.

Again, as long as you can really fight the Tartars in the Songjin area, I can launch an attack in southern Liaoning and other places, and maybe I can share some of the pressure for you. ”

Li Zixiao said seriously to Wu Sangui when he was about to leave.

"Don't worry, Lord Li, I will definitely tell Governor Hong what you say." Wu Sangui said.

Li Zixiao said this, just to remind Hong Chengchou first, and then he will repeat the mistakes of history.

Li Zixiao doesn't know whether Hong Chengchou will listen to his warning, do his best to listen to the destiny of heaven, Li Zixiao has done everything he can, and the rest depends on their own performance.

Wu Sangui arrived on Juehua Island for three days, and then set off to return to Ningyuan, where the fighting was getting bigger and bigger, and Wu Sangui could not stay longer.

Li Zixiao also stayed on Juehua Island for a week, not only sold a large number of artillery and firecrackers to Hong Chengchou, but also made him get his wish, and reached a deal with Wu Sangui for artillery, firecrackers and horses.

It can be said that Li Zixiao is still very satisfied with his trip to Juehua Island, and the purpose has been achieved.

Immediately, Li Zixiao was escorted by Lu Yuan's First Fleet and returned to Tamna Island.

After Li Zixiao returned to Tamna Island, he ordered the soldiers on the island to continue to strengthen their training and ensure combat readiness at all times.

At the same time, Li Zixiao sent people to pay attention to the situation in Liaodong at all times, and asked Lu Yuan to transport the remaining batch of artillery and guns to Juehua Island three days later.

Li Zixiao very much hopes that after Hong Chengchou obtains this batch of artillery guns, he will be able to have a good time in Liaodong and Tatars, and not be defeated so early.

It was not until the beginning of May that Li Zixiao suddenly got the news that Hong Chengchou finally dared to attack after obtaining Li Zixiao's artillery and firearms.

Hong Chengchou took advantage of the artillery and firearms in his hand to inflict heavy losses on the Tartars between Xingshan and Songshan, breaking the previous stalemate between the two sides here.

"Haha, okay, Hong Chengchou is still very capable, and this time it is not in vain that I went to give them a big gift."

Li Zixiao also said with a smile after getting Hong Chengchou's war report in Liaodong.

Originally, at this time, Hong Chengchou could take advantage of the victory to advance and advance his 130,000 army to the front line of Jinzhou, which would greatly compress the Tartar detour space at that time.

Even at this time, Hong Chengchou can command the main force of the Ming army under his command and have a decisive battle with the Tartars, which will be a very favorable opportunity for the Ming army.

It's a pity that Hong Chengchou was still too cautious, and still took a steady and steady approach, slowly advancing towards Jinzhou, wasting the most precious time.

It also gave the Tartar time to regain his breath and let go of a great opportunity to attack.

"Hey, my previous warning, it seems that Hong Chengchou has all taken it as a deaf ear!

It's a pity that the great opportunity for a counteroffensive was lost, Hong Chengchou was still too cautious, and it was time for the Tartars, who had relieved their breath, to increase their offensive.

If my expectations are correct, the next battle on the Songjin front line will become more intense, and it is time for Hong Chengchou and Huang Taiji to engage in a full-scale battle.

In this way, our time has come. ”

Li Zixiao sighed in disappointment after learning about Hong Chengchou's actions, and at the same time knew that it was almost their turn to act.

"Gather the generals of the whole army and above to come and convene a meeting." Li Zixiao said to Quartz.

"Yes, General, I'll send someone to inform the generals." The quartz urn responded.

"Wait, by the way, let's also call Shuichiro Yoshino and Yokokawa Fujino." Li Zixiao said again.

"Yes!"

Although Quartz didn't understand why Li Zixiao summoned his generals to hold a combat meeting and called the two Japanese slave leaders, Quartz still habitually chose not to ask and just execute the order.

Soon, Luo Chao, Zhou Dazhu, Lu Yuan, Zhao Zilong, Hong Sheng and other senior generals of the White Dragon Army received a notice from Quartz to send people.

When these people heard the news that Li Zixiao was going to hold a combat meeting, they all looked excited, because they knew that this meant that Li Zixiao was probably going to prepare for action.

Not only Luo Chao, Zhou Dazhu and other generals of the White Dragon Army were excited, but even Yoshino and Fujino, the two Japanese slave leaders, were also very excited.

All this is because Li Zixiao actually asked the two of them to also participate in this high-level meeting of the generals of the White Dragon Army.

Yoshino and Fujino swore allegiance to Li Zixiao, and even if they were Li Zixiao's domestic slaves, they were also discriminated against by the generals of the White Dragon Army.

It's just that when Yoshino and Fujino were making Li Zixiao's 'dog', they also hoped to be accepted by the generals of the White Dragon Army, and only then could they go further.

Soon, dozens of generals of the White Dragon Army rushed to Li Zixiao's tent and held a military meeting here.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am sure you all know the purpose for summoning you here."

As soon as Li Zixiao came up, he glanced at the generals and said solemnly.

After Li Zixiao glanced at everyone, from the eyes of everyone, they all saw a strong battle intent, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

Li Zixiao continued: "There is only one topic for today, which is to attack the Tartars.

In fact, as early as two months ago, I had already discussed with the two generals, Luo and Lu, how we should attack the Tartars next.

Now the main force of the Tartars was pinned down by Hong Chengchou in the Songjin area, so that Liu Chong had captured southern Liaoning before.

And this time the place we are going to fight is not somewhere else, it is Mao Shuai's Dongjiang Town. ”

"Now let me talk about the combat operation this time."

Li Zixiao walked to a detailed map of Liaodong, pointed to an island near the mouth of the Yalu River, and said: "Our first goal in this battle is to capture Phi Island, Sumeru Island and Yuncong Island, these three islands.

The task of seizing these three islands was entrusted to Lu Yuan and Hong Sheng's sailors. ”

"Yes, my subordinates are commanded." Lu Yuan and Hong Sheng stepped out excitedly and responded in unison.

Li Zixiao nodded to the two, and they retreated, Li Zixiao continued: "The second step, the navy assists the army, and at the same time lands on the east and west banks of the Yalu River.

They captured the two cities of Cheolsan and Uiju in Korea, and the city of Jingang on the west bank of the Yalu River.

The task of seizing Tieshan and Yizhou will be handed over to Zhou Dazhu, and as for the capture of Zhenjiang, it will be handed over to Luo Chao's department, and you must seize the three cities with lightning speed.

After taking the three cities, you don't need to rush to continue sending troops, first build a fortress in the three cities, and make this a bridgehead for us to enter the hinterland of the Tartars. ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey!" Luo Chao and Zhou Dazhu stood up together and took the order.

Li Zixiao's intention is actually obvious, the location of Dongjiang Town is extremely important.

Dongjiang Town is not Jinzhou, and once Li Zixiao reoccupies Dongjiang Town, he will not only be able to cut off the best passage for Tatars to enter North Korea.

At the same time, it can also be used as a base to attack deep into the hinterland of the Tartars.

Therefore, Li Zixiao ordered Luo Chao and Zhou Dazhu to seize the three cities of Zhenjiang, Yizhou and Tieshan on both sides of the Yalu River, and establish three fortresses.

"From today, except for the Third Fleet to remain on Tamna Island, the Second Fleet will be relocated to Phi Island, and the First Fleet will be relocated to Sumeru.

Based on Phi Dao and Minmi Island, you cooperated with the army departments to successfully capture the three cities of Zhenjiang, Uiju, and Tiesan, and cooperated with the defense of the three cities. ”
